People’s Postcode Trust is all about people – helping people to lift themselves out of poverty and uphold their individual rights. PPT aims to help people find real solutions to tackling the root causes of poverty and its long-term consequences by, for example, helping people gain the skills, knowledge and resources they need to improve their life chances. Poverty prevention can focus on relieving other needs, such as those associated with ethnicity, geography, gender, age or disability.
PPT aims to fund projects that give people a voice to help them uphold their rights and find their own place within society.
